New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - August 13, 2013 (Investorideas.com
newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in
investing ideas in leading sectors including social media and internet stocks issues an exclusive Q&A with the CEO and President of UMeWorld Limited (OTCQB: UMEWF),
an online video and education internet company in China. Mr. Michael
Lee, Chief Executive Officer and President share his vision of targeting
the massive online market in China.

Q: Investorideas.com
Michael can you first explain briefly to new investors the two
divisions of your internet company, the video content platform and the
online education market?A: Michael Lee, Chief Executive Officer and President
You probably are not aware that YouTube and many other popular
video sites are blocked by China's "Great Firewall". UMeLook is uniquely
positioned to offer advertisers the ability to use their existing promotional
video assets to access mainland China consumers. UMeLook is deployed
through a sophisticated CDN (Content Delivery Network) with broad
coverage throughout mainland China. UMeLook is fast becoming the primary
source of foreign video content for the Chinese viewer across any
Internet-enabled device in China.
SmartStar is our cloud-based, adaptive learning educational
platform, under our digital education business division. Unlike
traditional online courseware, SmartStar provides a concept-level
assessment and evaluation of a student’s learning progress. It
identifies the student’s strengths, weaknesses, their proficiency in a
given subject area and personalizes the delivery of proprietary
educational items according to the student’s learning needs. SmartStar
is also capable of providing scoring and statistical analysis of exams
and evaluations and to provide administration of local and nationally
standardized exams. It is ideal for schools and teachers.Q: Investorideas.com
With the UMeLook ( http://www.umelook.com/) website can you explain how having foreign content differentiates your site in China?A: Michael Lee, Chief Executive Officer and President
UMeLook.com is a niche player in the Chinese online video market,
wherein the competition is focused on local TV series and, we different
ourselves by focusing on foreign videos of less than 10 minutes duration
and target affluent Chinese viewers between the age of 18-45 who are
interested in foreign information, products and brands. UMeLook.com has
also succeeded in entering the Chinese online video market where global
players such as YouTube and Dailymotion are blocked and inaccessible in
China. There is no existing direct competitor for UMeLook operations
plan and business model in the Chinese online video marketplace.Q: Investorideas.com
What kind of growth are you seeing for UMeLook ( http://www.umelook.com/) and how do you plan to keep building on that?A: Michael Lee, Chief Executive Officer and President
More than 60% of China's approximately 600 million internet users
watch online videos. As the number of China's internet users grows, so
will the online video market. Chinese are spending much of their time
online -- an average three hours a day, compared with two hours watching
television, according to a study conducted last year by Starcom
Mediavest Group. The statistic is the same for consumers even in the
less developed, lower-tier markets that brands are keen to crack.
UMeLook.com will continue to drive viewership aggressively and in
conjunction, are preparing to launch a global e-commerce platform
assisting small and medium brands from worldwide sources, to expand into
the Chinese market. Marketers spent $7.4 billion on online marketing in
China in 2011, representing 13.5% of total media spending. That was up
from $5.1 billion, or 10.6% of the total, spent in 2010. We hope to
generate significant advertising revenue from our e-commerce platform.Q: Investorideas.com
The online education market has the potential to be huge according
to analysts, filling the gaps in traditional education. How are you
targeting that market and what kind of traction is the company getting?A: Michael Lee, Chief Executive Officer and President
SmartStar is on track to become a leading education service
provider in China. The K-12 education system in China is the largest in
the world comprising 230 million students and 12 million teachers.
Chinese families spend more discretionary income on education than
anything other expense, except for housing. SmartStar will be available
through a monthly subscription, as low as US$10, enabling the user to
have unlimited access via the internet. We are in advance discussions
with several national distributors who will offer SmartStar pre-paid
cards that can be used against a monthly subscription.Q: Investorideas.com
In closing Michael, what do you see as your biggest competitive advantage moving forward?A: Michael Lee, Chief Executive Officer and President
Well, I am happy to say that there is no existing direct competitor
for UMeLook operations plan and business model in the Chinese online
video marketplace. As for SmartStar, our adaptive learning concept and
technology is unique and in fact, we are about to submit a patent
application to the patent office in U.S. and China to protect this
asset. In conclusion, we are delivering two first-in-class products to
meet the unmet needs of the target markets and there is no reason not to
be successful.About UMeWorld
